Award-winning Macon, Georgia, artist, producer, and speaker joins a powerhouse night of music in West Hollywood featuring Bow Wow Wow

West Hollywood, CA — Award-winning guitarist, vocalist, producer, and Macon, Georgia Music Ambassador Joey Stuckey will perform at the legendary Whisky a Go Go in West Hollywood, California on June 25, appearing as part of a night of music that includes iconic new wave band Bow Wow Wow.

This will be Stuckey’s third appearance at the Whisky and he’ll be joined by a seasoned rhythm section featuring legendary L.A. musicians Dusty Wakeman on bass and David Raven on drums. Together, the trio will bring Stuckey’s expansive “Progressive Americana” sound to one of rock and roll’s most historic stages.

Stuckey, Wakeman, and Raven will arrive at the Whisky fresh off a historical recording session down Sunset Boulevard at The Les Paul Recording Studio, a state-of-the-art facility honoring the legacy of music pioneer Les Paul located in the historic United Recording building. The recording session will be the first time any artist has recorded an album at the studio. The session will take place on an all-tube mixing console that was Les Paul’s original creation that has been refurbished and made functional again, along with other original equipment originally used by Mr. Paul in the 1940s and 50s.

Rooted in the rich musical history of Macon, Georgia, Stuckey’s music reflects the spirit of artists such as Otis Redding, Little Richard, and the Allman Brothers while drawing from blues, jazz, roots, Southern rock, and Americana. With a voice that can move from a gravelly rasp to a warm croon, and guitar work marked by blues fire and melodic sophistication, Stuckey creates music that is soulful, literate, and full of human connection.

The June 25 performance at Whisky a Go Go offers Los Angeles audiences a chance to experience Stuckey’s musicianship in an intimate, high-energy setting, backed by two well-respected players and sharing the bill on a night that celebrates music history, craft, and connection.

Eight Classic Music Films to Be Re-Released in 2026 in High Definition

Lightyear Entertainment Logo

Studio City, CA – Lightyear Entertainment announces that it has embarked on a major project to remaster and future-proof its classic music films.  Shot and edited on videotape in the 80’s, there was no way to go back to 35mm film materials.  But using modern technology, the company has successfully remastered eight of them in High Definition for the first time.

Lightyear CEO Arnie Holland said: “These films are some of the best music films ever, starring some of the biggest artists ever.  Some are concerts, some are documentaries, and one is a unique feature film. All were in Standard Definition.  It was sad for me to watch them become so fuzzy and outdated, when these beloved artists’ music is still vibrant and relevant.  Technology had pushed these classic films aside, but now technology has made them great again.  Yes, we used AI programs to accomplish this. While I am as worried about the future of AI as most other people, right now it’s a great tool.  And ignoring the possibilities of what it can do doesn’t make sense.  We owed it to these major artists to use every tool we could find in order to preserve and future-proof these films.”

All of the eight films were produced in the 80’s before Lightyear’s 1987 management buyout of RCA Video Productions, Inc.

The first film to be newly released was Elvis ’56 Remastered, on February 20.  For that one a BluRay was released for the first time along with a release to Digital platforms in TVOD, SVOD, AVOD and YVOD.

On June 5, the following films will be released to Digital platforms in TVOD, SVOD, AVOD and YVOD:

Eurythmics: Sweet Dreams (the Video Album) Remastered
Jefferson Starship: The Definitive Concert Remastered
Stevie Nicks: Live at Red Rocks Remastered

Film Posters: Elvis '56, Eurythmics: Sweet Dreams (the Video Album), Jefferson Starship: The Definitive Concert, Stevie Nicks: Live at Red Rocks

On August 21, the following films will be released to Digital platforms in TVOD, SVOD, AVOD and YVOD:

A Night with Lou Reed Remastered
Rick Springfield: The Beat of the Live Drum Remastered
Waylon Jennings: America Remastered
Return to Waterloo (a film by Ray Davies of the Kinks) Remastered

Film Posters: A Night with Lou Reed, Rick Springfield: The Beat of the Live Drum, Waylon Jennings: America, Return to Waterloo (a film by Ray Davies of the Kinks)

Waylon Jennings America was released on DVD in 1986.  It has never been offered to Digital platforms before.  The film includes scenes with Robert Duvall, Hank Williams, Jr. and Johnny Cash.

Return to Waterloo is a 60-minute feature film (released theatrically by New Line Cinema), and, instead of dialog by the actors, the story is told almost exclusively by the lyrics of original songs penned by storyteller extraordinaire Ray Davies.

Elvis ’56 was originally seen on Cinemax after debuting at Sundance; Stevie Nicks Live at Red Rocks on HBO, Rick Springfield’s The Beat of the Live Drum (directed by David Fincher) on HBO, Eurythmics Sweet Dreams on MTV, A Night With Lou Reed on MTV.

All of the film remastering was produced in-house by David Lawrence, Lightyear’s Director of Film Acquisition. Sound mastering adjustments were done by Sky Spooner, Lightyear’s Executive Vice President.

14-PIECE FRANK ZAPPA TRIBUTE ANNOUNCES SOUTHWEST SPRING TOUR WITH ZAPPA ALUM, NAPOLEON MURPHY BROCK

The Stinkfoot Orchestra’s April–May run includes a headline slot at San Diego’s Global Earth Day Festival, first-ever shows in Phoenix and Las Vegas, and a two-night no-repeat Vegas stand

BAY AREA, CA — The Stinkfoot Orchestra, a Bay Area-based 14-piece ensemble dedicated to the music of Frank Zappa, will launch a Southwest spring tour beginning April 16, bringing one of rock’s most ambitious catalogs to stages across California, Arizona, and Nevada.

Fronted by Napoleon Murphy Brock and featuring a history of collaborations with Zappa alumni including Ike Willis and Ray White, the band’s 2026 spring run includes a headline performance at San Diego’s 34th Annual Global Earth Day Festival, first-ever appearances in Phoenix and Las Vegas, and a two-night late-night stand in Las Vegas featuring more than 70 songs with no repeats.

Known for combining musical precision with theatrical irreverence, The Stinkfoot Orchestra has built a devoted following on the West Coast by bringing Frank Zappa’s technically demanding music to life through a 14-piece lineup featuring a six-piece horn section, five vocalists, tuned percussion, and a stage show that embraces both the complexity and absurdity of Zappa’s work.

“I appreciate the fact that they prepared themselves properly. They learned the music properly, they play the right notes and they are articulate about it. If they weren’t doing it correctly, I wouldn’t show up. The standard is high.”
- Napoleon Murphy Brock, Frank Zappa alumnus and Stinkfoot Orchestra frontman.

The tour opens at Venice West in Venice Beach on April 16 - a favorite stop both for the band and fans alike where past performances have included sit-ins by several Zappa alumni including Bruce Fowler and Arthur Barrow. Venice is followed by a stop at Spaghetti Western in Morongo Valley on April 17. On April 19, the band will headline the Global Earth Day Festival at the WorldBeat Cultural Center in San Diego’s Balboa Park.

From there, the band heads to Arizona for a return to Tucson at 191 Toole on April 22, followed by its first-ever Phoenix performance at The Rhythm Room on April 23.

The run reaches a peak on April 24 and 25 in Las Vegas, where The Stinkfoot Orchestra will make its Vegas debut with two complete, late-night performances at The Bonfire following Phish’s second weekend at the Sphere. Curated by Cash or Trade, the shows are being billed as two nights of music with no repeated songs between them.

The band returns home to Northern California to conclude the tour with 3 dates at Cornerstone in Berkeley on April 30, The Boardwalk in Orangevale on May 1, and Lost on Main in Chico on May 2.

“The connection between the musicians is palpable, Chargin making it look easy is an illusion that is the product of countless hours of practice. Even my untrained ears recognize the technical ability required of all the musicians to deliver. ”
- Spike Steffenhagen, San Diego Reader (March 2024)

“The impression left upon driving home from this experience was one of deep appreciation mixed with laughter and amazement. The Stinkfoot Orchestra is more than worthy of your time and money.”
- Ted Silverman, JamBase (September 2021)

Apr 16 — Venice West — Venice Beach, CA — 8pm
Apr 17 — Spaghetti Western — Morongo Valley, CA — 9pm
Apr 19 — WorldBeat Cultural Center Global Earth Day Festival — San Diego, CA — Headlining

TODD RUNDGREN

Born and raised in Philadelphia, Rundgren began playing guitar as a teenager, going on to found and front The Nazz, the quintessential `60's psychedelic group. In 1969, he left the band to pursue a solo career, recording his debut offering, the legendary Runt. But it was 1972's seminal Something/Anything?, on which he played all the instruments, sang all the vocal parts, and acted as his own producer, that catapulted Todd into the superstar limelight, prompting the press to unanimously dub him 'Rock's New Wunderkind'. It was followed by such landmark LPs as The Hermit of Mink Hollow and the above mentioned A Wizard, A True Star, as well as such hit singles as I Saw The Light, Hello It's Me, Can We Still Be Friends, and Bang The Drum.

In 1974, Todd formed Todd Rundgren’s Utopia (renamed and reconfigured in 1976 as Utopia), an entirely new approach to the concept of interactive musicianship, and embarked on an extensive round of touring and recording. Standout Utopia offerings included Oops! Wrong Planet, Adventures in Utopia, and Oblivion. Along the way, Todd Rundgren’s Utopia combined technical virtuosity and creative passion to create music that initially, for millions, defined the term "progressive rock”, and subsequently, as Utopia, the term “powerpop”.

Rundgren's myriad production projects include albums by Patti Smith, Cheap Trick, Psychedelic Furs, Meat Loaf, XTC, Grand Funk Railroad, and Hall And Oates. Rounding out his reputation as rock's Renaissance Man, Rundgren composed all the music and lyrics for Joe Papp's 1989 Off-Broadway production of Joe Orton's Up Against It (the screenplay commissioned by The Beatles for what was meant to have been their third motion picture). He also has composed the music for the hit film Dumb and Dumber, as well as a number of television series, including Pee Wee’s Playhouse and Crime Story.

In 2009 Rundgren performed his iconic 1973 album A Wizard A True Star in concert in its entirety for the first time ever, and several years later did the same with a double bill: Todd & Healing. He has toured with Ringo Starr as an erstwhile member of the All-Starr Band since 1989, and continues to perform with symphony orchestras both domestically and internationally. In 2018 he toured North America with original Utopians Kasim Sulton and Willie Wilcox for the first time in 33 years. After the release of his long-awaited autobiography The Individualist, he spearheaded the world’s first hybrid concert/book tour highlighting music across his 50-plus-year career.

In 2017 on successive weekends he was awarded honorary doctorates from both the Berklee School of Music and DePauw University.

In 1998 Todd debuted his new PatroNet technology which for the first time allowed fans of a musical artist to subscribe directly to the artist’s musical output via the Internet. This caps a long history of groundbreaking early multimedia "firsts", including:

•1978: The first interactive television concert, broadcast live over the Warner/QUBE system in Columbus, Ohio (the home audience chose each song in real time during the concert by voting via QUBE’s 2-way operating system).
•1978: The first live nationally broadcast stereo radio rock concert (by microwave), linking 40 cities around the country.
•1979: The opening of Utopia Video Studios, a multi-million dollar state-of-the-art facility. The first project produced by Todd there is Gustav Holst’s The Planets, commissioned by RCA Selecta Vision as the first demonstration software for their new videodisc format.
•1980: Creation of the first color graphics tablet, which was licensed to Apple and commercially released as The Utopia Graphics Tablet.
•1981: Time Heals, the first music video to utilize state-of-the-art compositing of live action and computer graphics (produced and directed by Todd), becomes the eighth video to be played during the launch of MTV on August 1, 1981.
•1982: The first live national cablecast of a rock concert (on the USA Network), simulcast in stereo to over 120 radio stations.
•1982: The first two commercially released music videos, one of which was nominated for the first-ever Grammy awarded for “Best Short Form Video” in 1983.
•1992: The first commercially available music downloads via CompuServe.
•1993: The release of “No World Order”, the world’s first interactive record album on CD-i.
•1994: The release of “The Individualist”, the world’s first full-length Enhanced CD.
•1994: The world’s first interactive concert tour.
•1998: Launches PatroNet, the world’s first direct artist subscription service -- predicts that someday "music will be sold by the pound".
•2016: The production of the world's first full length concert shot with multiple Virtual Reality 360º cameras.
•2021: Spearheaded the “Clearly Human” virtual concert tour, featuring 25 live-streamed performances geo-fenced and tailored to a different US city each night.

FIRST TIME VINYL RELEASE OF LAURA NYRO’S STUNNING "LIVE IN SAN FRANCISCO, 28TH APRIL 1994"

LIMITED EDITION CLEAR VINYL 2LP SET FOR RELEASE ON 27TH MARCH

A rare and intimate live document from one of America’s most singular songwriting voices, Live In San Francisco, 28th April 1994 captures Laura Nyro in spellbinding form during a late-career performance at the New Orleans Room, Fairmont Hotel. Recorded just three years before her passing, this show finds Nyro revisiting her extraordinary catalogue with warmth and conviction, exuding her indelible soulful nature.

Pressed for the first time ever on vinyl, this limited edition clear 2LP presents a beautifully curated set spanning early classics, fan favourites, and deeply personal later works. Stripped back and heartfelt, Nyro’s piano-led performances are enhanced by subtle backing vocals, the power of her songwriting and voice shining through.

She wrote songs that had no kind of fixed compass point. They remain as unique and absolutely spellbinding to this day as when I first heard them in the ‘60s.”

Elton John, 2024


PRE-ORDER LIVE IN SAN FRANCISCO, 28TH APRIL 1994 LIMITED EDITION CLEAR VINYL: https://lauranyro.lnk.to/Live_In_SF_94_2LP

Highlights include moving renditions of “Dedicated To The One I Love,” “Save The Country,” “And When I Die,” “Emmie,” and “It’s Gonna Take A Miracle,” alongside lesser-heard gems.

During the singer/songwriter movement in the late '60s and early '70s, Laura Nyro was one of the most celebrated tunesmiths of her day. Nyro was just 18 years old when she signed her first recording contract and wrote the songs for which she is likely to be best remembered. By the time she was 22, she had become one of the most successful composers in American popular music. She wrote wonderfully expressive and poetic songs that took the folky introspection of her peers and infused it with elements of soul, R&B, jazz, and gospel, giving them an emotional heat that set her apart.

This 2LP edition of Live In San Francisco, 28th April 1994 is available on vinyl for the first time and is pressed on limited edition clear vinyl.

Tribute Shows to the Late, Great, John Lodge of the Moody Blues Announced!

Friday July 17th at The Bilheimer Capitol Theatre, Clearwater, Florida, and Sunday July 26th at Esher Theatre, Esher, UK

We are delighted to confirm that two special concerts have been planned to celebrate John Lodge, his music, and the music of the Moody Blues.

Friday July 17th at The Bilheimer Capitol Theatre, Clearwater, Florida – Tickets on Sale Friday, March 13, 2026 at 10:00am
https://www.rutheckerdhall.com/events/detail/john-lodge-celebration

Sunday July 26th at Esher Theatre, Esher, UK - Tickets on Sale  Wednesday March 11.
http://www.eshertheatre.com/

VIP tickets available to include a Meet and Greet with Jon Davison, Alan Hewitt and the 10,000 Light Years Band.

When the Moodies stopped touring in 2018, John made it his absolute passion to keep the Moody Blues music alive.  John had embarked on his first solo tour in 2015, aided by his great friend and Music Director Alan Hewitt (Keyboards for the Moody Blues), and what followed was a series of tours capturing the music that John described as the soundtrack of his life.  The shows grew from simple shows in small venues, to the extravaganza that followed, with captivating video and lights joining the impeccable sound, energy, and passion that John, Alan, and the 10,000 Light Years Band, brought to this magical and iconic music.

John’s first ‘tribute’ in his show was to his oldest friend, Ray Thomas, with his mesmerizing rendition of ‘Legend of a Mind’.  Soon after he added his tribute to Mike Pinder with his ethereal version of ‘The Sunset’, and very sadly Graeme Edge was then lost. Prior to Graeme’s passing he met with John, and John asked him to record his poem ‘Late Lament’, so he could forever be on stage beside him. It gave John never-ending joy to include it in his show, and take a moment during each evening to stop and listen to the words his friend wrote so many decades ago… The years would fall away as John, together with the audience, would journey back in time together through this timeless music.

At the same time that John was building this stunning show, his daughter Emily met Jon Davison of Yes…. not only did they fall in love (and later marry), but Jon and John became great friends… and over nights spent enjoying each other’s company, they decided that Jon should join the merry band of brothers, and together they could continue to honour the music of the Moody Blues, and that of Graeme, Justin, Mike and Ray.  As John said, he hoped people would leave his shows feeling that something joyful had happened to them.

The years of touring brought so much happiness and created deep and lasting memories for all.  There were a lot of laughs, and sometimes challenges, but always a shared passion for the love of the music, and for those standing side by side on stage together.  

During some of the long travel days John and Jon continued to talk and make plans… everything and anything seemed possible as the miles rolled by, and one of the conversations was how much John wanted Jon and Alan to continue the band into the future.  

Sadly, this all came to an end one day in October.  For a little while there was silence.  Then slowly Jon and Alan began to talk. Could it be possible to fulfil John’s wishes?  Could they continue John’s mission to ‘Keep the Music Alive’?  The seedling of hope grew day after day as ideas flew between them. They brought in the videographer Andy Clark, a long-time friend and collaborator, and he began work on the video. Jon picked up his bass guitar and began to learn John’s parts… and Alan started making magic Moody Blues music again…

The concert will be a Celebration of John and the music of The Moody Blues. The hope is to bring all the love, joy, happiness, and incredible music that John’s shows were famous for alive.  The set list will incorporate hits and fan favourites, and will include enchanting vocals and visuals of John, together with the angelic voice of Jon Davison, and the incredible 10,000 Light Years Band.  This is a show that will reach deep in the heart, but at the same time, create happiness through the power of music. These two unique shows are planned for now, one near John's home in the USA, and one near his home in the UK, and just maybe, if the fans enjoy it as much as the band on stage do, more might follow.

"To be able to work with my darling Jon and the incredibly talented Alan on these shows for my father has been the thing that has made the sun shine again.  My hope is that for all of us; me, Jon, the band, and the fans, we can come together to share in our love of my father, and the music, one more time.  He will forever be in my heart, and forever walking by my side.  It is not a time for sadness. It is a time to smile to the heavens, and I hope people will come and join us as Jon, Alan and the band play the music we all love, as we fulfil his wishes. As my father always said, Thank You for Keeping the Faith." Emily Davison, February 2026

“I had a unique perspective of John in that I was lucky enough to become his son-in-law and close friend. I learned so much from my time with John, which included many exciting stage experiences performing beside his magnificent and magnetic personality. Along with the incredible Alan Hewitt and the 10,000 Light Years band, I’m thrilled to have the blessed opportunity to be standing by John’s side one more time.” Jon Davison, February 2026

"John had a huge heart and was loved by so many. I will miss him and will miss being on stage playing those great songs with him, but this is the next best thing. I know he’ll be with us in spirit and smiling, knowing that we kept the promise we made before he left to fly with the angels." Alan Hewitt, February 2026

Aisles Releases Live Video At Abbey Road Studio 3 Through Instagram Live With Jo Kendall This Wednesday


Jo Kendall (Prog / Classic Rock) interviews Aisles on Instagram live ahead of the YouTube premiere of Blue Skies (live at Abbey Road) this Wednesday at 6pm UK

A powerful live performance filmed inside Studio 3 at Abbey Road Studios — a milestone moment ahead of the band’s next studio album.

Filmed during the band’s recent UK tour — which included a highly successful appearance at HRH Prog — the session documents a defining moment in Aisles’ international trajectory. On 17 November 2025, four songs were recorded fully live at Abbey Road, to be released individually throughout the year on YouTube, culminating in a full live EP available on CD and digital platforms later this year.

Jo Kendall, music journalist from Prog Magazine and Classic Rock, was there to witness the session, and she will join Aisles again on Instagram Live this Wednesday 4th of March at 6 pm UK, to discuss the video and performance.

The performance features the band’s current lineup consisting of Boris Seeder (lead vocals), Germán Vergara (guitars, vocals), Juan Pablo Gaete (keyboards), Daniel Alejandro Concha Baird-Kerr (bass) and Alvaro Poblete (drums). The band were accompanied by their long-time sound engineer and recording engineer, Fernando Cubillos, who engineered, mixed and mastered the session, ensuring the performance retained both its raw energy and sonic depth.

The first release, Blue Skies, is particularly significant. Originally the first single from the band’s upcoming studio album, the song now re-emerges in a raw and emotionally charged live setting. The performance not only showcases the band’s precision, chemistry and sonic power, but also captures them performing inside the very room where artists such as The Beatles and Pink Floyd shaped modern music history and both very influential to Aisles’ emotional and at the same time expansive sound.

Studio 3 provides an intimate yet historic backdrop. The video offers more than a live rendition; it delivers a visual and sonic statement about where Aisles stand today: confident, cohesive, and operating at a new level of intensity ahead of the unveiling of their upcoming long-awaited sixth studio album.

Recorded entirely live, without overdubs, Blue Skies (Live at Abbey Road) highlights the band’s tight musicianship and dynamic interplay. The session stands as both a symbolic and artistic milestone — reflecting Aisles’ expanding international presence and serving as a powerful preview of what lies ahead with their next studio album.

With this release, Aisles invite listeners to witness the band at a pivotal moment: refined, ambitious, and fully alive inside one of the world’s most iconic recording spaces.

ON MARCH 4TH 6 PM UK TIME THE BAND WILL BE INTERVIEWED ON INSTAGRAM LIVE BY MUSIC JOURNALIST AND CRITIC JO KENDALL AHEAD OF THE OFFICIAL VIDEO PREMIERE AT 6:20 UK ON THEIR OFFICIAL YOUTUBE CHANNEL.

AISLES ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3m_ezhicmtfbhcejWDSy5A

THERE WILL BE Q&A WITH THE BAND DURING THE BROADCAST.

GONG ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM BRIGHT SPIRIT, SET FOR RELEASE ON 13TH MARCH 2026


NEW SINGLE ‘THE WONDERMENT’ + NEW MUSIC VIDEO OUT TODAY

Psychedelic institution Gong have announced their new album Bright Spirit today, set for release on 13th March on the Kscope label. The news comes alongside a new single and video for the track ‘The Wonderment’. Speaking on the announcement, frontman Kavus Torabi shared –

Structured around modulating glissando guitar and a pulsating analogue synth sequence, The Wonderment finds Gong in deeply meditative form. A mystical and explorative journey both inwards and outwards. Timeless and expansive, The Wonderment is another piece of the kaleidoscopic puzzle that makes up Bright Spirit. A healing charge of cosmic rays beamed out from deepest space. All is sound, all is love. Gong is one and one is you.”

WATCH THE NEW VIDEO FOR ‘THE WONDERMENT’
Created by Drain Hope

STREAM/DOWNLOAD ‘THE WONDERMENT’

Back in November, Gong released the album’s first single ‘Stars In Heaven’, a colourful and kaleidoscopic slab of the band’s signature cosmic rock.
Watch the video for ‘Stars In Heaven’ here.

PRE-ORDER THE NEW ALBUM BRIGHT SPIRIT, AVAILABLE ON TRANSPARENT TURQUOISE VINYL, CLASSIC BLACK VINYL AND CD

Bright Spirit marks the third instalment in a trilogy that began with The Universe Also Collapses (2019) and continued with Unending Ascending (2023). Recorded with long-time collaborator Frank Byng in his South London studio, Bright Spirit sees Gong at their experimental best, more adventurous and more open to the dream than ever.

And dreams are central here. Not just as lyrical imagery, but as a way of thinking - where psychedelia, love, and the thin membrane between worlds feed into the music. The opener, ‘Dream Of Mine’, unfurls like a transmission from the in-between, its mid-section blooming into harmonies and an angular melody that feels like a key turning in a long-awaited lock. Frontman Kavus Torabi describes it as a moment everything has been pointing toward, a flash of clarity inside the swirl.

Elsewhere, there’s tenderness - unexpected perhaps, but unmistakably Gong, ‘Fragrance Of Paradise’ being Torabi’s first-ever love song. ‘The Wonderment’ finds Gong in deeply meditative form, a mystical and explorative journey both inwards and outwards, timeless and expansive, another piece of the kaleidoscopic puzzle that makes up Bright Spirit.

THE SENSATIONAL ALEX HARVEY BAND – GOOD EVENING BOYS & GIRLS

THE SENSATIONAL ALEX HARVEY BAND – GOOD EVENING BOYS & GIRLS

A COMPREHENSIVE 21 CD BOXSET OF CONCERT PERFORMANCES FROM THE SCOTTISH LEGENDS, INCLUDES 144-PAGE HARDBACK BOOK, RARE MEMORABILIA, SIGNED BAND PHOTO, REPLICA PROGRAMME + MORE

Released on 10 April

PRE-ORDER NOW FROM HERE

There was never another band like The Sensational Alex Harvey Band. They didn’t just play shows - they made every venue feel like their territory, told stories, cracked jokes, and then tore the roof off the place. Scotland has produced its share of musical legends, but SAHB remain something rarer still: a band whose myth came from the stage, night after night, sweat and swagger and steel-toe precision.

Good Evening Boys & Girls is the most comprehensive attempt yet to bottle that lightning. Gathering 16 previously unreleased live performances, this 21-CD set traces the group from the Marquee in ’73 through the band’s final run with the original lineup. It’s a tour through ballrooms, city halls, theatres and festivals - London, Newcastle, Glasgow, New York, Berlin, Reading - and the famous Glasgow Apollo Christmas Show of 1975, long spoken of in fan circles, now finally unearthed.

To be released on April 10 and is available to pre-order now from here.

Much of what’s here comes straight from the source: soundboard and radio recordings, remastered with care by Pete Reynolds (Mott The Hoople, Fleetwood Mac, Wishbone Ash) to preserve their bite and atmosphere. You hear the band as the crew and punters heard them - gritty, elastic, unpredictable, and completely themselves. This is SAHB without varnish, and that’s exactly how it should be.

The box also digs into the story behind the noise. A 144-page hardback book tells the tale with unseen and rare photographs from Ian Dickson, Barry Plummer, Janet Macoska, Steve Emberton, Dick Barnatt, Michael Putland, Kevin Cummins and more, accompanied by new notes from longtime Harvey historian Martin Kielty. Much of the memorabilia - posters, passes, scraps, treasures - comes from Ted McKenna’s private archive and the remarkable collection of Martin Davies, offering a glimpse into the working life of a band that lived as hard as it played.

A replica Glasgow Apollo programme and a signed photograph from Zal Cleminson and Chris Glen complete the set - fittingly, since the box was made with the full cooperation of Zal Cleminson, Chris Glen and sonic architect Dave Batchelor and the estates of Alex, Ted and Hugh McKenna.

For longtime fans, Good Evening Boys & Girls is a chance to step back inside the halls where SAHB became SAHB. For anyone new, it’s an invitation into a world where theatre met street-corner grit, where humour sat beside heartbreak, and where a band of players followed a singular frontman into the wild every single night.

TANGERINE DREAM – 50 YEARS OF PHAEDRA: AT THE BARBICAN – A COMMEMORATIVE PERFORMANCE AT LONDON’S BARBICAN TO HONOUR 50 YEARS OF THE GROUNDBREAKING ALBUM


3 STUNNING EDITIONS SET FOR RELEASE ON 30TH JANUARY 2026

In 1974, Phaedra redefined the landscape of electronic music. What began as an experimental session at Richard Branson’s Manor Studios in Oxfordshire became a seismic event in modern sound. Using the Moog sequencer for the first time, Tangerine Dream - then comprised of Edgar Froese, Christopher Franke, and Peter Baumann - crafted Phaedra, an album that shimmered with innovation, mystery and a palpable sense of discovery.

Half a century later, Tangerine Dream returned to London’s Barbican to honour that landmark work - reimagining it for a new era. Across its three vinyl LPs, 50 Years of Phaedra: At the Barbican captures this transcendent live performance, in which the current line-up - Thorsten Quaeschning, Hoshiko Yamane, and Paul Frick - revisit the spirit of Phaedra with the very tools that Froese and his collaborators helped pioneer.

PRE-ORDER NOW (RELEASED: 30TH JANUARY 2026)

Part of Phaedra’s magic lay in its imperfections: the original sequences were never truly quantised, their timing drifting unpredictably through the Moog’s analogue circuitry. That subtle instability became part of its charm – a human pulse within the machine - yet it long left current bandleader Thorsten Quaeschning intrigued by what a fully realised version might reveal. Now, fifty years later, Tangerine Dream have revisited the work with the precision that technology once denied them. 50 Years of Phaedra: At the Barbican is the first time Phaedra has been performed fully quantised, each motif beautifully aligned with a crystalline precision previously unheard.


Tangerine Dream live at The Barbican, London

For over five decades, Tangerine Dream have stood as pioneers of electronic sound, shaping the evolution of ambient, film, and synthesiser music. Founded in Berlin in 1967 by Edgar Froese, the group became synonymous with the “Berlin School” of electronic composition, influencing generations of artists from Jean-Michel Jarre and Depeche Mode to Radiohead and M83. Their vast catalogue spans over a hundred albums, including acclaimed film scores for Sorcerer, Risky Business, and Firestarter, and countless live performances that redefined what electronic music could be on stage. Universally recognised for their visionary approach to texture, atmosphere and technology, Tangerine Dream remain one of the most innovative and iconic forces in modern music.

Chilean Progressive Rock Band Aisles Reveals UK Tour Dates

Chilean progressive rock band Aisles are set to bring their powerful live show to the UK this November with a five-date mini tour that will highlight their distinctive blend of emotion, musicianship, and contemporary prog.

Recognized as South America’s leading modern progressive rock band of the last 20 years, Aisles have built an international following through their dynamic performances and ambitious studio work, including their acclaimed double album Hawaii.

Their album Beyond Drama marked a new creative chapter, combining intricate arrangements with a direct, emotionally charged sound. Their reinterpretation of classics by Los Jaivas Obras de Los Jaivas stands out as a bold and evocative tribute, while the Bahamut EP showcases their instrumental prowess, drawing inspiration from the sci-fi novel of the same name by renowned author Francisco Ortega.

With previous tours across South America, North America, and Europe, the band has earned praise from progressive music media worldwide. This UK run is an opportunity to connect with audiences in person and share their music with new listeners.

The band is currently at work on their upcoming album and their latest single, Blue Skies, is an intense and emotional track about holding on to someone in thought when distance keeps them apart. Driven by an urgent 5/4 time signature, dynamic guitar work, subtle atmospherics, and a raw vocal delivery, “Blue Skies” channels longing, urgency, and the weight of uncertainty.

Celebrate The 7th Annual Joey Stuckey Alive Day Music Festival Macon, GA – October 4, 2025

The 7th Annual Joey Stuckey Alive Day is set to take place Saturday, October 4, 2025, at the Mill Hill Community Arts Center at 213 Clinton Street, Macon, GA 31217—doors at 5:30 PM, music from 6-9PM.

Joey Stuckey Alive Day 2025 is a free, family-friendly music festival that celebrates the day that Joey successfully beat the brain tumor that was “supposed” to take his life as a child. In 2017, Macon’s mayor and city council recognized Joey Stuckey Alive Day as an official celebration and honored it with a proclamation. Alive Day is designed to encourage folks to come together to revel in the joy of life through music and to celebrate their own personal triumphs against adversity.

This year’s festival features the music of pianist extraordinaire Tom Rule at 6PM and Macon’s official music ambassador Joey Stuckey with Charles Arnold at 7PM.  We are so excited to offer a unique culmination to our festival at 8 PM that includes three Georgia legends performing a songwriters-in-the-round style set—Caroline Aiken, Diane Durrett, and Liz Melendez.

Chances are that if you are a true music enthusiast, especially of guitar-driven Southern rock and blues, you have heard of Macon, Georgia’s official music ambassador Joey Stuckey. The blind producer and recording artist launched a new music festival in his hometown on September 29, 2017. The festival, “Joey Stuckey Alive Day,” hosted an array of talented musicians from across the state of Georgia. This free, family-friendly event was held in celebration of the anniversary of Stuckey’s surviving brain tumor surgery as a child. While the brain tumor left Stuckey blind and with other health challenges, his parents started celebrating the anniversary of the successful removal of the brain tumor as a way to turn what could have been a traumatic experience for a child into a triumphant experience!

Stuckey sees his “Alive Day” as a chance to connect with family, friends and fans and to revel in the joy of living and music. It is a day dedicated to positivity and to uplifting the community. The inaugural concert featured 8 artists, a variety of activities for families, food trucks, perfect weather and over 500 music-lovers in attendance! Mayor Robert Reichert honored Stuckey by issuing a proclamation naming September 29th “Joey Stuckey’s Alive Day in Macon/Bibb.” The second annual festival in 2018 saw around 1500 attendees.

Says Stuckey, “The outpouring of love and support is humbling. I am looking forward to this year’s festival!”
